Nh Carmichael informs the Belle
vus Herald that the output Of the
Minnie Moore mine for December
1886, is 936 tons, footing up total
of some $4,000. This immense
output was the result OF 70 DAYS work
in the mill, and is an average of 81
tons per day Of "a hours. Much more
ore than this could easily be taken
from the immense bodies exposed in
the lower levels, but the output must
be gauged acc riding to the capacity
Of the mill. Under the management
of slr Jewel grand work has been
done, and, in the words Of Mr.. Char
michael, "the Handsome output for
December Is largely due to the first
class work done by the mill. Not
alone has the December work been
confined to the ore bodies, as two

lHE lola mine, located at NlchClla,
Idaho, has been operated very sue
cessfully the past year. a wire rope
tramway nearly one and half mile
long was put in to carry the ore to
the smelter, and much work was done
in completing the tunnel, opening up
new ore bodies, etc. During the year
enough ore las been taken out to
produce Zoo tons bullion which said
, for sS16,500 This bullion was
hauled to Camas, sixty-fiye miles
The company made fair profit on
their operations. One Of the owners

to sell to a London syndicate at a re-
puted price Of 100000 This syn

on the market for the sale OF the mine

IDAHO TERRITORY.

ne Salt Lake Irloune OF the ISL
inst. pays the following handsome
tribute to this territory:
In the year Just closed, grand
advance has been made in Idaho. /
North and south developments have
been made which place the "Gem Of
the Mountains" in the front rank as a
mining territory. The Camas gold
belt has taken on new significance;
there is no more debate about the
mines on Wood River going down,
and the Northern Pacific Railroad
Company Is making arrangements to
move 10000 tons of ore, during the
year which begins TO-DAY, from the
C9ur d'Alene region. In every quar-
ter, the Territory rings with hammers
of the miners; the product of the
mines last year doubled that of the
, former year, and still swells steadily
with deeper development, and hope
sings is song in the hearts Of the
people in cadences deeper aud sweet
